The SmartDelta consortium engages in collaborative research with a diverse range of industrial partners, including those in the railway, e-mobility, telecommunications, finance and banking, enterprise software, logistics, personal mobility, and cybersecurity sectors. Work Package 2 (WP2) offers a methodology for internal and external stakeholders, providing essential guidance for interacting with SmartDelta’s solutions and workflow. One of the key objectives of these materials is to empower SmartDelta stakeholders to easily implement specified and developed procedures and solutions and understand features and capabilities of offered functions and tools and adopt them in their own contexts.
The SmartDelta Methodology offers a systematic guideline for managing software quality in incremental software development contexts, helping to adapt seamlessly to evolving requirements. By addressing key challenges in delta management, it delivers tailored solutions aligned with the various phases of the software engineering lifecycle. With a focus on empowering companies to efficiently handle software deltas, the SmartDelta Methodology facilitates the iterative development of systems while aligning with specific business goals and strategies.
Building upon industrial evaluations and incorporating valuable lessons learned, this document presents the final version of the SmartDelta Methodology developed by the project consortium. It reflects the thoughtful evolution of our approach.
